00:00
A22 wants to create the world's most exciting club football competition.
00:06
Our proposal aims to ensure competitive tension throughout the year.
00:10
It's an open system featuring promotion and relegation and two stages, a league stage and a knockout stage.
00:18
The European Men's Super League will have 64 participating clubs, divided into three leagues, Star, Gold and Blue.
00:28
The Star League consists of 16 clubs divided into two groups of eight.
00:33
It's the same for the Gold League, 16 clubs, two groups of eight.
00:38
The Blue League will have 32 clubs split into four groups of eight.
00:42
During the league stage, clubs play each other within their groups, home and away.
00:47
That's 14 matches per club each season, seven at home, seven away.
00:52
The top four clubs in each group of the Star and Gold Leagues and the top two clubs in each group of the Blue League
00:59
will qualify for the knockout round starting with the quarterfinal.
01:03
The quarter and semifinal consist of a two-legged knockout round, home and away.
01:09
The final will be played on neutral ground.
01:12
The knockout round finals winners will be the Blue League, Gold League and Star League champions.
01:18
Our proposal is built around sporting merit. Promotion, relegation and exit from the competition happen each season.
01:27
The club finishing at the bottom of each group of the Star League will be relegated and replaced by the two Gold League finalists.
01:35
The same system applies in the Gold League.
01:37
The last club of each group will be relegated and replaced by Blue League finalists.
01:43
In the Blue League, 20 out of the 32 clubs will leave the competition altogether
01:49
and be replaced by clubs depending on their domestic league performance.
01:53
This system ensures mobility within and across leagues.
01:57
And as matches will be played midweek, this format is completely compatible with domestic leagues.
02:03
This proposed format for football will guarantee openness, competitive tension and success based on sporting merit.
02:12
It is one competition for all clubs, all players and all fans.
